lyrics

Hey there my old friend
Remember growing up in our town
We were destined to leave
With our heads hanging out in the clouds
You wanted California,
For its oceans and Hollywood nights
And I lit out for Tucson
With my lover and the moon passing by

Here we are my good old friend,
As the seasons have turned
But we've made it back home,
Planting seeds in the dirt
Planting seeds in the dirt

You stitched LA
Into patchworks of woman and film
I played folks songs
For her in the echoes of the hills
You climbed the ladder
For money and meaningless flings
I watched her go out the backdoor
When I said the wrong things

Here we are my good old friend,
As the seasons have turned
But we've made it back home,
Planting seeds in the dirt
Planting seeds in the dirt

Fill your burning lungs with the fresh air,
And wash away your troubles with the rain
Somedays we are our fathers,
Chained to habits we cannot break
And we use to hear the good word on Sundays,
Our mothers were the spiritual kinds
Now our youth is far behind us,
Since we've crossed the Pacific Northwest line

Here we are my good old friend,
As the seasons have turned
But we've made it back home,
Planting seeds in the dirt
Planting seeds in the dirt
Planting seeds in the dirt

"So, we will leave Tom Waits to tell us about the saloons, whores and carnival folk. Let John Prine nail toy railroad tracks to his kitchen table at Christmas, sing about his Mexican home. Now we have Ky Burt to bring us to places where we might want to live – where there are wildflowers, rain, and we can take new journeys.
